Senators To Stage Two Games Oct 2 A double header will be staged Sunday, October 2, between the killed one man I Inequality Of Justice After weeks of official investigation, during which the revolting story of the murder of a young woman at a drunken orgy was thrice repeated for the edification of the morbid minded, "Fatty" Arbuckle, screen comedian in public and degenerate rake in private, has been held for trial on the charge of manslaughter and given his freedom on bail, instead of being incarcerated upon a murder charge. The reduction was due to the arbitrary ruling of a police judge. If the orgy had been held on the Barbary coast instead of in the St. Francis hotel, and the accused been enveloped in the obscurity of poverty, instead of a millionaire of national renown, does any one suppose for a minute the same pro ceedure would have followed? He would have been hustled unceremoniously to prison and stayed there until his trial. There would have been no mysterious disappearances of wit nesses, none of useless repetitions of salacious scandal, and blind justice would have proceeded speedily and remorsely to exact the, penalty. In the death cells at the Oregon state prison are two youths awaiting execution for complicity in the murder of Till Taylor, sheriff of Umatilla county, who was slain in a jail-break a year ago, in which one shot was fired. The man who admitted firing this shot has already been hanged. Two others are serving life sentences and unless the governor interferes, the two youths will die on the scaffold, three deaths and two life sentences for the one shot fired that E3S mm.

Salem Senators, state champions, and the Standard Oil nine of Port land, intercity chamlpons, here at Oxford park. 'The first game Is scheduled for 1 o'clock, the second following im mediately at 3. "I.eftv" Schroeder, national league outlaw, who mystified the rvnwn-WUlamette team In the first game of the double header which decided the state champion ship for Salem three weeks ago, will be on the mound for Salem, according to an announcement made by Manager Jack Hayes earlier in the week. "Biddy" Bishop, with Mb faith ful "spittcr," will also general the team to an expected victory In one of the games. The Senators played the oil men last Sunday here and won by a score of 12 to 11, taking the game in the ninth inning by a couple of two baggers. Postmasters' Convention Here Friday One hundred third and fourth assistant postmasters of the state will meet here, in their first con vention, for three years, tomorrow, in the civil service room of the Salem postoffice, according to an announcement made this morning by It. G. Henderson, president of the state association and postmas ter of Chemawa. An address of welcome will be given by August Hnckestelu postmaster of Suletii, and will fof lowed by a reply from W. A. Mo rand of Boring. The convention Is called for the purpose of reorganization and the election of officers, as well as to select a delegate to the national co"ventlon to be held in Chicago soon. An opportunity will be given the visitors to attend the fair, the business session being planned for the morning In order to allow them to do 80. Does any one suppose for an instant that justice would have been so inexorable if the accused youths had had wealth and position back of them instead of poverty and ignorance? In the first place, capable counsel would have prevented their sacrifice to public hysteria by a change of venue, and skillful instead of perfunctory defense would at least have mitigated their punishment, and not left them friendless and alone with no one to plead their cause except the war mothers. Equality before the law is a pleasant fiction just, as equality in human nature. There are so many loopholes in our Amer ican laws which wealth can take advantage of, that ar denied to poverty, that it makes the administration of jus tice more or less of a farce. There is only one way of securing this equality -and that to place all accused upon the same basis, by having the state provide the defense as well as the prosecution. Justice must be really, not nominally free. At present justice is virtually for sale, for rich man and poor man are not on the same plane. The state that provides the judge, the jury, and the prose cutor, should also provide the defender the lawyers, who are really officers of the court and should be paid by the state, which pays the other court officers. Until they are, the administration of justice will continue to be more or less of a sham. ALICIA HAMMERSLEY A Woman Who Wouldn't Remarry By ID AH McGLONE GIBSON The Noted Writer County Road Grading Starts Work of grading and graveling several of the county roads in preparation of paving next spring and summer, has already been Started by Hoadniaster James Cul ver, who has put five crews to work. The roads between Stayton and Mehama, Stayton and West Stay ton. 8tayton and Sublimity, Sub limity and Aumsville. and the Willard road south of Silverton will receive attention. No estimate of the work which will be accomplished this fall can be given, for the reason that all depends upon the weather. The five crews have a total of 10 to 15 men employed and have been making excellent progress thus far. "I am going directly back to the sought-for goal.

Violence can not proceed from calm reason. Do not confuse violent resistance with nit la violence. It sometimes is wisest to meet violence with in- nslficd rigor. The paramount danger lies In the initiative under- aken for the sake of violence. It may be the rearing parent, the lridnt "boss" or the tempestuous teacher. The effect always is he same -the roaring, the strident and the tempestuous Is as sure of being overthrown as the sun is of shining.

The strident employer is foolishly hurt- ng himself In all respects; first, he impairs his owu health in his fierce outbursts; second, he utterly destroys morale and cannot build oyalty on a base of fear; third, he cannot reckon on enduring fortune ke the three specified cases: the rearing parent does not inspire ifection and therefore cannot impart blessings; the child will loathe when it all is at the hazard of his temper; and the higher he rises, the more frail his support. The tempestuous teacher merely terrifies the pupils who Inwardly or outwardly rebel and of course cannot develop their be3t, with gocd results to themself and bringing fame to him or her, Violence is so utterly absurd an accompaniment of temporary power, that only the foolish will continue to uk it.

Rosanans, who have attended the Btate fair lor many years declared that never Jefore have Portlanders turned out as they have today. A heavy jam of traffic is expected on the Paci fic highway between Salem and Portland tonight when the hun dreds of cars start on their return trip. Unquestionably Portland has moved for the day. The visitors, apparently from every walk of life, arrived by the thousands on the morning Southern Pacific trains, and hundreds were deposit ed at the downtown Oregon Klec- tric station. Many of them brought with them their lunches which were spread upon the ground at noon. Crowd Remains Orderly. Today, like the three days be fore it, was not marred by any dis order of any size, according to the police. The crowd seemed deter mined to take its time and moved slowly about from building to building. A large crowd gathered at the livestock coliseum at 9 o clock this morning to witness the parade of prize winning livestock. A half hour later the pig, sheep and c ilf showing contest by members of the boys' and girls' industrial tlrbs, which was held in the same build ing, held the interest of the spec tators. Awards are to be made on points of excellence in showing animals for exhibition. A canning demonstration' by members of the canning cluls was given at 10 o'clock in the indus trial department of the education al building, just before the lunar ians made their way through the gates, headed by their large band. The concert which followed drew many from the buildings to the grounds immediately in front of the entrance. Between 11 and 12 this morning an informal talk on art ind the Beckwith collection of loan pic ture was given in the art depart ment at tho new pavilion by Mrs. London, Sept. 29.
